Hallo

Many of this flys, 4mm, where in Summer on a bavarian Pond.
I think its Notiphila riparia. Is that right?

Hallo

Theres no other species, which look similar like Notiphila riparia. Is it correct?
What position is needed to a identification? Dorsal I have too.

Hallo

Perhaps the dorsal view can help for a better indentify

Notiphila riparia has completely yellow antennae. This fly has 1-2 antennal segments dark and the 3rd yellow but darkened apically. As far as it can be determined from photo; besides the coloration of antennae, I see here, tibiae with black bands, scutum uniformely coloured - most likely Notiphila annulipes Stenhammar. B)

Hallo Cranefly

Notiphila annulipes, thank you.
I only looked at the striped abdomen.

My other Notiphila must be Notphila annulipes, too. She has a black tibia, and dark antennae.
